If the church is an Income Summary church, information on recording these entries is at Income Summary.
Note for Local Churches
Income is handled on a weekly basis, starting with the collection of the offerings.
Cash collected from offerings is counted and allocated to the appropriate offering accounts for the week
Record the offerings one by one (Sabbath School, church, etc)
Envelopes are individually opened, counted, and allocated to the accounts nominated on the envelope
Record the envelopes one by one in Receipt Entry
Record any miscellaneous income amounts (e.g. facilities hire, catering, etc) in a similar manner. These types of income may attract GST.
A receipt is then printed or emailed for each offering and envelope
A bank deposit slip is prepared
Cash/cheques are banked into one or more bank accounts
If you choose not to use the system at all, but continue to send paperwork to the conference, the conference treasury will perform summary recording on behalf of your local church.
